I added a string of white lights (that have since been straightened out!) to my gift garland. I think it gives it a little more sparkle. I really love how it glows in the evenings.
Darn, I wish I had taken this photo before the Christmas cards went out! How cute is he?? He was cracking me up. He just kept sitting there waiting for me to take more photos. He's so funny! Hagrid's been such a good boy this weekend~ my constant companion, looking over me.
Today I've been feeling somewhat better, thank goodness. I've been able to get most of my gifts wrapped. These are the adorable tags I've been using. They are actually "Vintage Christmas" postcards by Cavallini & Co. I just sliced each pre-glittered postcard into four strips... and viola! Festive gift tags, ready to be punched and strung with baker's twine. I love the vintage style graphics. Love. Them.

Your Hagrid is a darling, how could you resist that sweet face? Such a perfect Christmas card pose (next year?)! Hope you're feeling much better now.

Hey, you can use that photo for next year's cards, what a darling photo. He's such a sweetie!
I hope you're feeling better. Richard's been sick since my birthday (late October) and I've been sick since before Thanksgiving. Whatever this is, it won't go away completely!
I like wrapping gifts too and your garland is wonderful! I may have to try that next year!
Wishin you a very Merry Christmas!

Jill your decorations look fabulous and I absolutely LOVE the picture of Hagrid in front of the Tree. It would make a great Christmas Card.

I love those postcards. Do you remember where you got them? Would love to have that pink church.
Hagrid looks perfect! That would have made an adorable card! Maybe next year...lol..
Happy Holidays to your and your family!!!!
Jill, everything looks so pretty. Love the tags- why didn't I think of that? :)Sweet pic of Haggie. -Made me laugh, though...right after I ordered the cards, K found the perfect pic of our sweet doggie- right there on her camera...!
Hope you are 100% back to your happy, well self for Christmas. Merry days to you!
Thanks so much for your sweet comments and well-wishes, everyone. I'm on some good meds now and doing much better.
Erin~ I bought my Cavallini tags at a Frenchie/vintage/antique store in Sonora, CA. You might google Cavallini & Co. Maybe their website can direct you to a retailer near your location. Good luck!
Hugs,
Jill
Wishing you a very merry Christmas and a happy and healthy new year!
Hi Jill, Love to look at your gorgeous photos. They look so Christmassy and festive. Wishing you a really Happy Christmas and New Year. Hugs, Carol xoxox
Your Christmas decor is stunning Jill! LOVE those gift tags.
Just had to tell you that you made my hubby's day with your comment on the table he restored for my birthday. He doesn't think he features on my blog often enough, lol! I told him he'd better get to renovating more furniture for me, ha, ha!
Have a great New Year!
